BARCELONA, Spain--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Scytl,
the worldwide leader in secure online voting and election modernization,
today announced the launch of its e-Election
Platform, the core of the industry´s
first and only end-to-end election modernization solution. Supporting
market needs toward more efficient election management, the platform has
been developed specifically for election processes and covers the full
election cycle (Pre-election, Election Day and Post-election), providing
both electoral bodies and voters the most secure, transparent, auditable
and accessible solution in the marketplace.

Scytl´s e-Election Platform offers complete functionality for each stage
of the election cycle:

Election Day - voter list management, kiosk voting,
phone voting, paper voting, help desk, and a control dashboard. In
addition to these, there are modules specifically tailored for
overseas and remote voters, via the web, phone, or electronic ballot
delivery.

Scytl´s modular configuration allows customers to initially deploy any
module needed and use a “grow-as-you-need” approach over time, providing
them with a personalized election modernization roadmap. The fully
integrated solution is built to ensure data integrity and process
integration allowing full visibility across election cycles and
integration with third party hardware & software solutions as well as
legacy systems.

With secure online voting and election management implementations
worldwide, Scytl´s platform approach has been positively embraced by
existing and new customers. The 2013
Ecuadorian Elections by the Electoral Commission of Ecuador is a
clear example of the election modernization full lifecycle
implementation of the Scytl e-Election Platform. The National Election
Commission was able to manage 4 elections simultaneously, the electoral
register for over 11 million voters, the management of political parties
and candidates, the training of polling station workers, the control of
election expenditures and the technical assistance to over 40,000
polling stations, and finally, publishing the official results in just a
few hours after the closing of the polls by scanning and electronically
transmitting over 160,000 polling station reports.

“Scytl´s security background , experience, market leadership and ongoing
investment in R&D ensures not only leading edge functionality, but also
provisions end-to-end security across the full e-Election Platform,”
says Jordi Puiggali, VP Research & Development Scytl. “Security and
verifiability lead to transparency: the more secure and verifiablethe
environment, the more transparent the process, a key factor customers
are looking for. Using a variety of vendors, especially those that
typically manage Pre-election and Post-election areas that focus on
functionality, may leave an election process open to attack and
vulnerability,” he concludes.
